Besides the fact that you walk out feeling completely relaxed and rejuvenated, the benefits of the infrared sauna go deep. As in cellular level-deep. Since a lot of the population mostly sit throughout the day while working, we tend to not sweat out the toxins in our bodies like our ancestors did. The human body sweats to cool down, which aids in removing toxins such as lead, zinc, copper, nickel and mercury. So sweating is actually a good thing that our bodies need to do on a daily basis in order to detox.

With daily exposure to environmental toxins and stress, our immunity decreases and health issues can arise. We tend to feel sluggish, foggy headed, moody, and have trouble sleeping. Our systems and mindset suffer in the process, when they are actually meant to thrive. The infrared sauna is a great way to de-stress and detoxify after a busy day in the outside world.

Some of the amazing benefits regular infrared sauna usage are:

• Encourages better cardiovascular performance
• Aids in stress reduction
• Improves circulation and helps lower blood pressure
• Activates the release of endorphins, which is our “feel good” hormone
• Increases muscle recovery and relieves muscle soreness
• Help relieve joint pain, inflammation, and arthritis
• Help improve lung capacity and function for better breathing
• Promotes healing and skin regeneration
• Flushes out toxins and heavy metals from body
• Burn off calories and aids in weightloss
